I am sorry to tell you Natas, but everything you said in your first post related to copyright laws is dead wrong.

When you purchase something, it always come with a kind of contract. You don't actually need to sign it, the law make it clear that there is a bare minimum contract that you have to agree to for everything you buy, and part of that that is the copyright law.

So, if you buy a CD with songs on them for your listening pleasure, you don't buy the right to listen to the CD or the songs, you buy the right to use the CD so you can listen to the tunes on it. What is the difference? Very subtle, but it make the hell of a difference. In expert law hands, it mean that you are 100% sure to lose at court saying things like you said in your first post. For example, even if you do buy the CD with said songs on it, if you download said songs on the internet for free then you break the copyright law no matter what you say because you never actually purchased the rights to the songs itself (it belong to the company who made the disk/the author).

I hope I make some sense to you.
